PREFACE:
Management of modern business requires an appreciation of multidisciplinary concepts
and in depth knowledge of specific analytical tools, geared to the solution the real life
problems.
No doubt every real situation is unique but a set of theoretical tools of knowledge, itself
based on empirical foundation.
It can help in developing the mechanism for handling such situation. So this PGDM
curriculum has been designed to provide the future managers with ample practical
exposure to the business world.
Human Resource Management & its functions are the part of economic activity. Like all
other departments HR department also plays a vital role in the proper and smooth
functioning of a company.
HR department is essentially needed for all types of organizations viz; small, medium,
large-scale industries & service sector.
Summer training is essential for the fulfilment of PGDM curriculum, it provides an
opportunity to the student of understand the industry.
My summer training at The Oberoi Rajvilas, Jaipur was an eye opening experience for me.
It is widely accepted fact that success of an organization or business depends on its human
resource that quality, calibre and character of people working in it.
The most important thing that an organization requires in order to work smoothly is the
right person on right place and at the right time. The characteristics and contribution of the
employees affects the goals of an organization. Therefore it is very necessary that
performance of the employees should be evaluated from time to time.
Thus performance appraisal becomes a necessary tool to judge the weak areas of the
employee’s personality. And also help the management to work in the direction of its
improvement.
The level of Performance Management System in The Oberoi Rajvilas, Jaipur is judged on
the basis of the data collected from the employee’s through the bar survey method of
structured questionnaire. After analyzing and interpreting the recorded data I reached at
the conclusion and recommendation which will help the hotel to make it PMS
(performance management system) more effective in order to increase the productivity of
its employees and thus to fulfil its objectives.
In these days of exposure I learned a lot on various
aspects of organizational structure, departments, technological skills, communication,
interpersonal skills and their impact.

INTRODUCTION OF
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
Performance Management
Performance Management is the process of creating a work environment or setting in
which people are not able to perform to the best of their abilities. Performance
management is a whole work system that begins when a job is defined when needed. It
ends when an employee leaves the organization. Many writers and consultants are using
the term “Performance Management” as a alternate for the traditional appraisal system.
A performance management system includes the following actions.
.
Develop clear job descriptions
Negotiate requirements and accomplishment-based performance standards,
outcomes and measures.
Provide effective orientation, education, and training.
Provide on-going coaching and feedback.
Conduct quarterly performance development discussions.
Design effective compensation and recognition systems that reward people
for their contributions.
Provide promotional/career development opportunities for staff.
Assist with exit interviews to understand WHY valued employees leave the
organization.
Select appropriate people with an appropriate selection process.
24. IILM-AHL, JAIPUR
Page 24

Data relating to performance assessment of employees are recorded, stored and use
for several purposes. The main purposes of employee assessment are:

probationary period satisfactorily.
To assess the training and development of employees.
To decide upon a pay raise where (as in organized sector) regular pay scales have
not been fixed.
To let the employees know where they stand in so far as their performance is
concerned and to assist them wish constructive criticism and guidance for the
purpose of their deployment.
To improve communication performance appraisal form provides a format for
dialogue between the superior and the subordinate and improves understanding of
personal goals and concerns. This can also have the effect of increasing of personal
goals and concerns. This can also have the effect of increasing trust between the
rater and rate.

FACTS AND FINDINGS/LIMITATIONS:
Punctuality, regularity and loyalty of the employee towards the organization is also
considered at the time of performance management.
Interdepartmental communication and coordination is also considered at the time
of performance management.
Trainings are also providing to the employees of the organization in a practical
environment, time to time, so that their performance will improve and they
perform efficiently and effectively. .
Sometimes the employee works hard for the whole year (i.e. 11½ months) but in
remaining 15 days, if there is any mistake is done by the employee it will affect
his/her appraisal and employee would have to suffer.
The technology used in the organization is new. It decreases the manual work in
the organization so employees have lots more time for other important work
SWOT ANALYSIS:
STRENGTH:
It is the first 5 star hotel in Jaipur
Its location (near to the airport)
It provides luxury accommodation to its customers
Regulgarly training is provided to the employees , which helps in enhancing their
skills and employee involvement in the orgnisation
It uses the environment friendly techniques.
They follows ecofriendly i.e. “RRR” (Reduce,Reuse& Recycle) through which
they can save the environment.
The Oberoi Rajvilas supports two organisations, SOS Children’s Village Jaipur
and Mother Teresa Foundation who provide better futures to underprivileged
members of the society.
WEAKNESSES:
Oberoi group is not hiring the people who are more than 25 in age for the initial level i.e.
Associate in any department.
41. IILM-AHL, JAIPUR
Page 41
OPPORTUNITIES:
A- Tourism industry is growing in Jaipur, and government is also focusing more on this
industry. So more opportunities are there for the growth of industry.
B- Now a day, Hotel Management is taking as a career option, so more and more
professional persons are coming to this industry.
THREATS:
As the tourism industry is growing, the competition is also increases as new competitors
are there in this sector like ITC, Rambagh, Marriot,Fairmont etc. So increase in the
competition may become a threat for the hotel.
SCOPE OF STUDY:
This research can be for vilases of Oberois in rajasthan. However this can not be hold
justified to the other kind of hotels in Rajasthan or in India of Oberois. For this purpose
the research can be taken as an initial base for a larger project.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
LEARNINGS:
I learned the practical implication of all the methods of HR which are in taught our
PGDM curriculum.
I got a great opportunity to improve my interpersonal skills through take part in
recruitment process, reference checks, and telecommunication.
I learned about the proper documentation of files and papers of employees as in
HR it is the most important work.
During my SIP I learned that coordination and cooperation between the different
departments and employees are necessary. Without this no one can perform its
task. So teamwork is the main basic of getting success.
I got to know that only work is not necessary to motivate employees to perform
better. Employee engagement activities are necessary to motivate them.
CONCLUSION
Importance of the Performance Management System
To assess the performance of an employee correctly is an important step of performance
management as it let the employee know about his strength and weakness. The
management and the employee himself comes to know about the areas where he/she need
to improve so that he/she can prove beneficial to the organization and help in achieving
goals efficiently and effectively.
After the collection of the relevant data from 25 respondents, and analyzing the
information, the conclusions that can be drawn from the research are as follows:
The Performance management system at The Oberoi Rajvilas is very good. It includes all
the aspects of an employee, which are necessary to perform a job. The most of the
employees of the Rajvilas are satisfied with the performance management system. But
some employees are not satisfied with this system. Sometimes there is biasness from the
superior side, so if some reward will be given to the seniors, may be they will do the
appraisal more appropriately. It also done various employee engagement activities and
provide timely training to the employees, according to the need of the department..
43. IILM-AHL, JAIPUR
Page 43
RECOMMANDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS:
The performance management system should be result oriented. If the employee
achieves the target or performs standard performance then good appraisal should
be given to him/her.
As in the hospitality sector there are mainly two seasons “Peak Season” and “Off
Season”. In peak season the amount of work is more and an employee put more
hard work to complete his /her task. But in off season the amount of work is less in
comparison of peak season.
The performance of the employee differs in both the seasons. So half yearly
performance appraisal system should be adopted, on the basis of that performance
of the both the seasons can be judged efficiently.
As in hotel industry every department has its unique characteristics. It is not
possible to judge the performance of all the employees on a set format. So
performance appraisal form should be different according to the various
departments or jobs need.
The performance management should encourage and rewarded so that they will
appraise more accurately and biasness will not be exists.
The timely (quarterly) self appraisal form and superior rating form can be filled by
the appraisee and appraiser, so that more accurate record of the employee’s
performance can be kept. And at the time of appraisal these appraisal forms can be
taken into consideration, so that more accurate appraisal analysis can be done.
